Story

David and I are walking a night time marathon for Glass Door, which is a charity we support and for which I am a trustee. Glass Door does invaluable work in support of the homeless community in London. 

Homelessness is increasing in London, recent statistics show its up 40% since 2010, leaving people vulnerable to extended periods of homelessness which has a detrimental impact on their physical and mental health. The London Homeless Collective brings charities together from pavement to policy. Collectively, the group shares ideas, experience, and opportunities, and work together to ensure that nobody is left behind.

On Friday 10th March the sector is coming together with one aim - to fight homelessness in our capital. Aiming to raise £250,000 to support much needed services over one fantastic night.
